simple, neat, and good price. Works great just plug it and it's on. speed seems to be good a well. auto-negotiate settings gets me 1G speed.

[Employee of bestbuy] If you have ever been in the market for an unmanaged switch, it is nearly impossible NOT to come across this family of Netgear switches. I have a couple of these deployed in my home and I've deployed dozens of these in the field as well. They just... work. Purchased a new construction home and many of the rooms have ethernet pre-wired. Most stationary devices in my home are using ethernet and I use a mix of these Netgear 5-port and 8-port switches depending on the device load. There are TVs, streaming devices (5 Apple TVs), computers, gaming consoles, smart bridges, NAS, printers, mesh nodes, AV equipment (receivers, power amps), etc. all running through these switches and haven't had any issues with them. They are also great options for the small business segment. In fact, they are marketed for business use and come with a lifetime warranty. Most residential networking equipment these days are housed in a plastic chassis. The metal case certainly gives a premium feel in your hands over plastic and I personally like the simplicity of the design. My significant other disagrees and does not like the way they look. However, no complaints from her about buffering when she's binge watching her shows in 4K. Great option at this price point. Highly recommend!

We have four of these in our system. We’ve never had an issue and never had to reset one in many years of use. Eight ports works out well for use in media centers or backup hubs. It’s amazing how many devices need a network port. These help to keep almost all of our streaming media going over wired Ethernet leaving the WiFi open for laptops, etc. Never even had a power adapter give us an issue. Very reliable.

If you need more ethernet ports, this 1Gbps switch is what need. It will allow you to connect up to 7 more ethernet cabled devices. Highly recommended for TVs, Blu-ray, computers, printers. Things that are stationary and don't move. **WiFi should be used for things that do move around (watches, tablets, phones, *specific* wireless devices).**

Easy to install. This solved my need to expand for more ports as my new router only had two slots. Everything is running smooth.

This network hub is highly beneficial when a wired connection is preferred over Wi-Fi.

We got our internet update and it helps with my husband and his multi products that needs it

Great for the value. Compact size and neat. Many ports and more than what you typically need.

Easy plug n go compact reliable and worth the money spent. I have 3 tv and PS4 ps5 Xbox one Xbox one s that's 4 game console hooked up and one port for 1gb nighthawk router!

Easy to use and a simple, compact unmanaged switch port. Great value.

Easy to setup NETGEAR - 8-Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Switch! Great price! Easy to use and a great price for the number of ports needed. Used several throughout the home to have ethernet connections through our home for smart devices in every room instead of using all WIFI. This is a reliable product at reasonable price, would recommend!

These are my go-to gold standard for unmanaged gigabit switches. Reliable, fast, and small.

This switch is fast and easy to use. The price was right and is doing its job well.

Netgear is rock solid. I have never had a problem with Nrtgear equipment. It is easy to setup and very reliable.

Easy to set up and it does what it says it will do.

Bought it to replace a TD Gear that was failing. This switch is excellent. It connects everything at 1000 mb. Looks great and does exactly what is supposed to do. Auto connect and keeps network traffic isolated to the device that calls for information. Perfect small switch.

Easy to hook up Easy to use Nice and portable Takes little space Cost is reasonable

Very exelent producto, works great , i always buy this item anytime I need interface with other computers and netwok

Very easy to install, lots of ports, & stable. For the price it’s a great value but.

Great device. Nothing to setup. Connect the power cord, connect to your network and away you go. Easy to attach to a wall with the inserts and screws provided. This switch allows each of my connected devices to perform as if they were direct connected to my high speed router. The price was also very reasonable.
